art is by Picasso...for us, December means sadness for my dad died on this month...the skull of sadness, "death's head" aptly this art's title...the birth of Jesus and the death of my dad all in one month...
art is by Vincent van Gogh ..."a walk on the sunny side" :)the world as we turn our back
counting days of spring
that sprung
memories of greens
that's gone
summer wind so warm
flower filled days
perfume filled air
friendly butterflies abound
fall with the downing
of the golden leaves
autumn with its wind so crisp
branches starting to shed
lifeless, bare, so quiet
wintry weather so cold
white ice covered roads
body numb and lost
time to get down and fold
time to get going
time to get some rest
time to flip the page
time to bid farewell
hope we all meet again
same time same place next year
if the future permits
if the closed door opens...
the ending of a long journey in life, although to die at 60 like my dad did is very young for lots of people live to their 80's, 90's and 100's. the good looking madam Imelda is hovering at 80, Aimee her daughter is my age, laughs. you will never know, we will never know how much God has in store for us in years. let's live our lives with decency, honesty, without pretense and without illusions. let's live it as we dreamt it to be :) like a walk in a pathway covered with red berries as the sun shines at your back lighting your way :> my kind of road :)
